ALBANY - New York has a Sunday deadline to reach an agreement with the federal government over whether to remove more than 500 I Love NY signs along state roadways or risk losing millions of dollars more in federal highway funds.

Already, the Federal Highway Administration has withheld $14 million in aid to New York after it deemed in February that the signs must come down because they violate U.S. standards.

But since then, the sides have been unable to reach an agreement on whether to replace the signs or take them down

Now the deadline is approaching: Without a deal by month's end, the federal government could withhold even more money from New York for its roads and bridges. Monday is the start of the federal fiscal year.

"We are still discussing with the federal government what changes they want to the signs," Cuomo told reporters Wednesday in Buffalo.
